i think ryan missed a huge opportunity because the romney campaign rolled out about two weeks ago, what i think is a terrific idea on this, which is the notion of capping the basket of deductions so that -- so that you as a -- as i -- as a citizen get to decide which deductions you're going to take. in other words you get like a 17% capped number about what deductions you can take. so you decide whether or not it's charitable or home mortgage or some combination of both. but i think that's a terrific idea. and i don't understand why paul ryan didn't mention that, or even ed mention it on sunday. because i think that's actually a very specific idea, and you say if that doesn't cover the number, then you -- then you increase the number. or lower the number. so i think that's a very specific idea that addresses how we're going to pay for it. >> forgive me. you've lost me. when you say that doesn't cover the number, what do you mean? what number? >> so let's say it's 17% and that doesn't pay for the tax cuts. then you lower -- then you lower the -- the deduction number to 14%. so you just -

steve has written an op-ed in "the new york times," and the title is "the radical is romney, not ryan." "president obama should use tuesday night's debate to press mr. romney to defend -- or even just explain -- these proposed cuts, which would be far more draconian than those advanced by his running mate, paul ryan. mr. ryan is widely viewed as the real fiscal hawk, but in key areas, his views on spending levels are actually closer to mr. obama's than to mr. romney's. with respect to nearly half the budget, mr. romney and mr. ryan widely diverge from each other. mr. romney is calling for a huge increase in defense spending, roughly $2 trillion more over the next decade than ryan wants to spend which is only $400 billion above mr. obama's budget. even though the military is not asking for such an increase. such an increase would force giant reductions, about 40%, in everything that's left. and katty kay, with libya on the front pages and sort of this growing scandal over security there, with syria in complete chaos, while we all know the defense budget needs to be cut over the next de
